A classic written by Tom T. Hall.

I have never been to Memphis and I miss it already.

Memphis is a hell hole

[@maxbunn3031]

You'll miss anywhere else when you get there

[@1memphisskater1]

No you don’t

[@brt1strrbb110]

You misunderstand the song.. Memphis is where ever you are drawn to and need to go.

[@mattyoung589]

This guy is exactly what country music needs! Would be grand to turn on country music radio and hear Charley

[@jayfox7769]

I don't even like what they call country these days, its pop music with cowboy hats that never met the sweat of a brow, this is country

[@mikegoble984]

It'll never happen.... he's too much country.

[@14gears55]

The problem is country music radio plays trash these days. That’s why I just plug in my phone and play Charley Crockett, Randall King, etc. Can’t stand what country radio had become

[@beardinator]

one day i'd love to host my own radio station and play classic country and newer stuff like this that has that old sound

[@79series]

@@14gears55 check the songs slim the guy in the clip does himself

[@gkirozal4846]

I hate to say it, but without satellite radio, guys like Charley wouldn't get airplay at all on commercial radio. It's a real shame that we have to pay for great music when we used to get it all for free. Outlaw Country!!!

Keeping real country alive

[@AdamEmerson1420]

This is one of the saddest old school country songs that it's hard not to feel the pain

[@beardinator]

I feel the same way about Fool Somebody Else by Charley Crockett

[@jeremyhart5029]

Hey Charley Crockett... Thank you for representing an ecclectic sound of classic East Texas - Louisiana Folk/Blues/Jazz/Gospel/Soul/Zeideco. Thank you for dedicating yourself to the true art of music.

[@ericdelanoy5896]

I like your profile pic

This song makes me want to sit in a dingy bar and drink beer from a cold bottle on a Wednesday morning.

Working out in Florida. Due to this corona situation, haven't been able to see my wife and 3 month old for 2 months. Took off and got on three connecting flights to make it back to Memphis to get them and bring them here. Hell of a haul but I finally made it back and heard this song. Perfect. Thank you for this song.

[@PapaCasual]

@@MrVal024 all the best to you and your family

[@mikeone718.]

I'm sure they were happy to see you. God bless

[@atc404770]

And I was feeling bad because I’m stuck with work for a few weeks in OK and hoping to back it back to the other higher elevation side of TN to see my wife and three month old.

[@totobrewer8530]

This is probably the best cover of this song I've ever heard. Fantastic

[@leonmartinalonso2920]

I recommend you a Spanish version called asi llegue a granada, by Hermanos Cubero

[@79series]

I wonder what song slim was playing to in the clip.

[@stevedouglas7375]

Wow, Charley sure knows how to pick them! This song was written by legendary songwriter Tom T. Hall in 1969 and I believe this is the best cover of it --- hands down. Great job Charley! By the way, for those of you who aren't familiar with the songs of Tom T. Hall, check out his greatest hits, or whatever. The man has written some very good songs.

Steve Douglas I’ve never heard of him and I’ve been a country music fan for over 20 years

Tom T Hall would approve.

[@NC4MP]

Another classic song by Charley Crockett. I love how he pays tribute to the legends that came before with his own style.

[@jamiedelaney9877]

I love when my city gets portrayed in a positive light instead of all the bad that does happen here. Memphis truly is a special place.

[@johndelaney2114]

I'm a Delaney from down in the Delta..I grew on this music and style is Dwight... Charlie Pride..on old school country..but his eclectic style on all genre's he plays make him the BOMB..!!

I like Oliver Anthony, something good came out of Appalachia but I am still listening to Charley Crockett.

This cover just elevates this song. Even though he's from Texas, his time in Louisiana helps him sing to the spirit of the Deep South like mostly only blues men can...

I'd never heard of Charley Crockett before tonight. I just happened to come across his 'Lesson in Depression' and decided to watch another. I was pleasantly surprised when I immediately recognized James Hand in this video and heartbroken to read of his passing. It's a strange feeling. I'm looking forward to seeing what else Charley Crockett has to offer while mourning the loss of Slim.
